Random Shots: Building a new future

Workers make progress on one of several homes in the Fountain Heights neighborhood where construction began on infill housing last year. The homes are being constructed in the Northern Triangle area of the neighborhood as part of a HOPE VI development. The award-winning revitalization plan for Fountain Heights was the focus of last month’s ONB Breakfast Briefing.

Drive through the neighborhood and see many of the homes already under contract, a stark contrast to 1999 when the neighborhood had a vacancy rate that was double the rate in the rest of the city.
